c projects

[chipy]

hey,

i've seen and read some tutorials on the basics and syntax of the c programming language. now i want to see and do some little c projects. i've searched on google and found some tutorials but didn't see anything more than that. i was wondering if anyone here at anandtech would know of any sites offhand that provides easy projects for the beginner. yall have to remember that i have no programming experience and only read the tutorials. ^_^;

thanks
chipy

Learning to program from the Web is not a good thing. Many people out there have a bad programming style and/or provide buggy code for others to see If I were you, I'd buy a good book (Amazon's has reviews from actual buyers). If you must, check out PlanetSourceCode.com, it might have something.

I would strongly advise reading a book.

I wouldn't say that learning on the web encourages bad habits.

Seems a little odd to want to learn programming, but not have any ideas for projects to try??
I've always had plenty of ideas, just no time to work on em.

A simple project is to program a blackjack game. Deal and play the cards according to normal rules; shuffle when the card count gets to a certain number. No need to handle graphics.

It would be a sin for any programmer to sell their only copy of K&R C.
